On Saturday 15 September the National RoboCup competition took place in Dunedin
Tobias Devereux (10 MC) and his Info Sci Mechatronics team mate Henry Eden-Mann (from Logan Park High School) took out 1st place in the Premier Theatre section and also won a Programming Prize.
Their robot band entry (entitled “Superconductors”) included five different instruments - synth bot, drum bot, percussion bot, ukulele bot and pipe bot - programmed to play a selection of songs. Each bot the group created responds to MIDI signals to play the musical instruments and each instrument has an Arduino that is programmed to respond to the MIDI signals sent by the computer.
